Screen Gems and Constantin Film are going forward on a sequel to last year's
action thriller "Resident Evil" with the film's star Milla Jovovich
reprising her role and second unit director Alexander Witt making his
feature film directing debut on the project. Production will begin in August
in Toronto.

Like the original, "Resident Evil 2" will be based on the video game series.
It will pick up where the last film left off, with Jovovich reprising her
role as Alice, who is left to search for ways to contain a deadly viral
outbreak while trying to escape the ruined Raccoon City with fellow
survivors. [ rest of article ]
